A Message from the President
A Message from the Exposition Chair
A Message from the Program Chair
On behalf of the Pittcon Organizing Committee, I
am thrilled to welcome you to Atlanta for Pittcon
2011. We have added a few new features to make
this year’s conference and exposition an exciting
and worthwhile educational experience with an
outstanding display of laboratory products,
services, instrumentation and the newest
technologies for you to see and touch.
Don’t miss the many educational and social
opportunities that Pittcon 2011 has to offer.
Attend one of our award winning symposia, visit
the posters on the exposition floor, take one of our
fantastic multi-level short courses or participate in
a dynamic, interactive networking session with
your colleagues. The week starts off with our
plenary lecture from Dr. Chad Mirkin on Sunday,
March 13, followed by a poster and mixer event to
connect with old friends and meet new ones.
Explore the exposition floor either on foot or by
riding the looping tram, and visit approximately
1,000 exhibiting companies that offer solutions for
all of your laboratory needs. Take advantage of the
mixers on the exposition floor on Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday. Visit the Pittcon Booth
(#5079) to pick up a 2011 souvenir, grab an apple
snack, send tweets about Pittcon, and learn about
the exciting plans for Pittcon 2012. Relax in
Centennial Park, explore the interactive display
from Coca-Cola, and enjoy the multitude of videos
on exhibitors’ products to help you decide your
next stop on the exposition floor.
Extend your Pittcon experience by taking
advantage of the post-show webcasted symposia
and by joining Pittconnect.com, Pittcon’s social
network for science. Continue your dialogue and
learning from exhibitors and colleagues until you
get to be face to face with them again at Pittcon
2012 in Orlando, Florida, March 11-16, 2012.
Thanks for attending Pittcon 2011, and I hope you
enjoy the week!
Welcome to Atlanta and the Pittcon 2011 Exposition.
As you may have already experienced first hand, our
exposition has always been your best opportunity to
learn and discover. It’s a time to evaluate, and
compare the latest instrumentation, technology,
and supplies for laboratory science provided by
exhibitors from all over the world. The Georgia
World Congress Center will envelope you in a
dynamic exhibition and a once-a-year opportunity
to interact with sales and technical staff, participate
in live demos, and attend vendor seminars.
Special show-only hours with no technical sessions
between the hours of 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. will
give you time to visit the exhibits without missing
any important presentations. In the center of the
exposition floor, Centennial Park will not only
provide a place to relax and network, but will also
include an interactive Coca-Cola display, informative
exhibitor videos, and complimentary copies of
leading industry publications.
Please visit the several specialty areas on the floor
this year including the New Exhibitors, Life Science,
LIMS, the French Pavilion, and ICP Alley. The posters
will be displayed in two areas, Red and Blue, located
at each end of the exhibit floor.
Other amenities include complimentary souvenir
bags; a looping tram; computer access at two
Internet Cafes; Apple Booths; Tuesday, Wednesday,
and Thursday afternoon mixers; a two-station
Twitter Café in Pittcon booth 5079; and strategically
located information booths to help you navigate the
Georgia World Congress Center.
If you require any assistance or have questions
regarding the exposition, please stop at one of the
Exposition Information booths or the Exposition
Management Office.
Welcome to Pittcon 2011. We are pleased to present
an outstanding technical program again this year.
Inside the Program, you will find a broad and deep
range of presentations that illustrate the best means of
solving complex problems in molecular biology,
pharmaceutics, the environment, forensics, materials
science and more. We are pleased to once again have
as our programming partners the ACS Division of
Analytical Chemistry (ACS-DAC), the Society for Applied
Spectroscopy (SAS), the Japanese Analytical Instrument
Manufacturers Association (JAIMA), Society for
Laboratory Automation and Screening (SLAS), The
Association of Lab Managers (ALMA), Society for
Electroanalytical Chemistry (SEAC).
You will find many ways to access talks of interest to
you. Inside this program, look for the Focus Areas at a
Glance. The Agenda of Sessions gives a quick day-byday overview of all sessions including our expanded
selection of Conferee Networking Sessions. Searchable
CD-ROMS with the full program and abstracts can be
found at Program Locators and Pittcon Information
Booths. Again this year, Pittcon is pleased to announce
Webcasts of selected symposia. The webcast symposia
will be available for 60 days following the conference
to registered attendees only. These webcast symposia
will be marked with a camera icon in the Technical
Program listing, the Focus Areas at a Glance and in the
Agenda of Sessions. The Pittcon website has program
information organized a number of ways, but for a
“customized program”, use the Pittcon mobile app,
or if you do not have a Smartphone, you can use
Agenda Builder.
I hope you will get the most out of the Technical
Program and the rest of Pittcon 2011. As always,
feedback is most appreciated. Please stop by and see
us in the Program Office (313B).

adriaan (ad) bax, NIH Distinguished Investigator at the National Institutes of Health,
will receive the 2011 Pittsburgh Spectroscopy Award, presented by the Spectroscopy
Society of Pittsburgh (SSP). The SSP Award, established in 1957, honors an individual
who has made outstanding contributions to the field of spectroscopy. He will be honored
for his work on the development and application of a wide variety of advanced multidimensional NMR techniques to problems of biochemical and biomedical interest.
raoul kopelman, the Richard Smalley Distinguished University Professor of Chemistry,
Physics, Biophysics, Biomedical Engineering, and Applied Physics at the University of
Michigan, Ann Arbor, will receive the 2011 Pittsburgh Analytical Chemistry Award from
the Society for Analytical Chemists of Pittsburgh (SACP), for his outstanding
contributions in the areas of bioanalytical and nanochemistry. This award is presented
annually to recognize significant contributions to the field of analytical chemistry by
the introduction of a technique, theory, or instrument, or by providing exceptional
training or a fertile environment for analytical chemists.
Ad Bax was born in The Netherlands and became a U.S. citizen in 1999. He received his
PhD in 1981 from the Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands, for work related
to the development of two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques,
which he carried out at Delft and Oxford Universities. Dr. Bax is responsible for many
advances in the study of proteins, including the development of high-sensitivity indirect
detection methods for 13C and 15N; the development of an approach to characterize the
15
N amide motions in proteins at high sensitivity; the development of 13C/15N/1H-based
triple resonance multi-dimensional NMR to assign resonances in proteins; the
introduction of heteronuclear three- and four-dimensional spectroscopy for the study
of protein structure; the introduction of uniform perdeuteration of proteins for the
purpose of improving resolution and sensitivity of triple resonance NMR spectra; the
introduction of technology that imposes a weak degree protein alignment permitting
the measurement of residual dipolar couplings; and the introduction of advanced
procedures that make it possible to model protein structures on the basis of chemical
shifts. Ad and his group have applied their novel technology to a range of biomedically
important systems, including the regulation of kinases by calmodulin, the structures of
HIV proteins such as Nef and the catalytic core domain of integrase, the Parkinson’s
disease-related protein alpha-synuclein, and the fusion domain of influenza virus protein
hemagglutinin.
Raoul’s work includes exciton transport in molecular wires, non-classical chemical
reaction kinetics in confined domains, and ultra-small opto-chemical sensors and
actuators for biomedical use. He invented optical nanosensors for single cell chemical
and physical imaging and is the inventor of multifunctional targeted nanoplatforms
for the imaging, therapy, and surgery of tumors, as well as of a nanoscale photon source,
a nanoscale voltmeter and a nanoscale viscometer.
Professor Kopelman obtained B.S. and Dipl. Eng. Degrees in Chemical Engineering from
the Technion, Israel Institute of Technology, as well as an M.S. in Physical Chemistry
under the direction of Otto Schnepp. He received a PhD in Chemistry from Columbia
University in 1960 under the guidance of Professor Ralph S. Halford. He then moved to
Harvard for a postdoctoral position in the laboratory of William Klemperer. After two
years as an instructor at the Technion, Israel Institute of Technology, he moved in 1964
to the California Institute of Technology as a senior research fellow in the laboratory
of G. Wilse Robinson. In 1966, he joined the faculty of the University of Michigan
Department of Chemistry.
Raoul Kopelman is a founding member of The Michigan Nanotechnology Institute for
Medicine and Biological Sciences and a fellow of the American Physical Society and
the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He has received, among
others, the American Chemical Society’s Edward Morley Award and Medal (1997) and
the American Chemical Society’s Spectrochemical Analysis Award (2005). With
his student, Jeff Anker, he also received the Hall of Fame Collegiate Inventors Grand
Prize (2002).
Ad’s work has been recognized by numerous awards, including the Hans Neurath Award
from the Protein Society, and the Glenn Seaborg Medal from UCLA, and the City of
Florence Award for the Molecular Sciences. He holds an honorary doctorate from the Free
University of Brussels, is a corresponding member of the Dutch Royal Academy of
Sciences, a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and a competing
member of DC Velo, and a Member of the National Academy of Sciences.

Wednesday, March 16, 2011
8:00 AM, Room 312
lingjun li, Associate Professor of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Chemistry at the
University of Wisconsin-Madison, will receive the 2011 Pittsburgh Conference
Achievement Award. This award, sponsored jointly by the Pittsburgh Conference and the
Society for Analytical Chemists of Pittsburgh (SACP), recognizes individuals who have
made outstanding achievements within 10 years after completion of their PhD work.
Professor Li is being recognized for the number and depth of her contributions in the field
of mass spectrometric study of neuropeptides and functional peptidomics.
Philip britz-mckibbin, Associate Professor of Bio-analytical Chemistry and Chemical
Biology at McMaster University, Hamilton, Canada, will receive the 2011 ACS Division of
Analytical Chemistry Award for Young Investigators in Separation Science. The award,
sponsored by Agilent Technologies and administered by the Analytical Division of the
American Chemical Society, recognizes and encourages outstanding contributions to
the field of separation science by a young chemist or chemical engineer within ten years
of their highest degree. These outstanding contributions may include the
conceptualization and the development of unique instrumentation for separations, the
development of novel and important separation methods or methodologies, the
elucidation of theory or fundamental processes involved in separations, or other
significant contributions to the furtherance of separation science.
Lingjun’s research program is focused on the development of novel mass spectrometry
(MS)-based tools in conjunction with microseparation techniques to study challenging
neuroscience problems including the functional discovery of neuropeptides and
biomarker discovery in neurodegenerative diseases. Emphasis has been placed on
constructing a multi-faceted and integrated MS-based platform that include high
resolution in-situ peptide mapping, high sensitivity micro-separation techniques
coupled with tandem MS de novo sequencing, isotopic labeling strategies, and
new bioinformatics tools to allow large-scale discovery and functional analysis of
novel neuropeptides.
Philip’s research interests have included fundamental studies of separation science
involving capillary electrophoresis and mass spectrometry, which are aimed at the
development of novel methodologies relevant to metabolomics, metabolite profiling
and biomolecular interactions.
Dr. Britz-McKibbin joined the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology at
McMaster University in July 2003. He completed his BSc in chemistry at the University
of Toronto (1994) followed by PhD studies in analytical chemistry under the supervision
of David D.Y. Chen at the University of British Columbia (2000) in Canada. He then served
as a visiting lecturer at the University of North Carolina, Greensboro (2000-2001), which
was followed by a Japan Society for Promotion of Science (JSPS) post-doctoral
fellowship with Shigeru Terabe at Himeji Institute of Technology in Japan (2001-2003).
Using this integrated platform, Lingjun and her group discovered more than 200 novel
neuropeptides in crustacean model organisms whose genomic sequences are currently
unavailable. These findings significantly expanded our knowledge about neuropeptides
in these important model organisms and transformed current understanding of
neuropeptide family organization. Furthermore, Lingjun and her group implemented
both mass spectrometric imaging technologies and in vivo microdialysis sampling tools
to follow neuropeptide distribution and secretion in unprecedented details.
Dr. Li received her B.E. degree in Environmental Analytical Chemistry from Beijing
University of Technology and her PhD degree in Analytical Chemistry/Biomolecular
Chemistry from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2000 under the
supervision of Prof. Jonathan Sweedler; promoted to Associate Professor with tenure
in 2008. Professor Li has published more than 100 peer-reviewed research papers,
including 70 research papers since her independent position at University of Wisconsin,
Madison. She has been previously recognized with a number of prestigious awards,
including the National Science Foundation CAREER Award, Alfred P. Sloan Foundation
Research Fellowship, Vilas Associate Award, and the American Society for Mass
Spectrometry Research Award.

isao noda, Scientist at Procter and Gamble Company, Cincinnati, will receive the 2011 ABBsponsored Bomem-Michelson Award from the Coblentz Society for his pioneering role in
advancing 2-dimensional correlation spectroscopy, both theoretically and experimentally,
and for the profound impact his work has had on our understanding of structure-property
relationships in polymeric materials.
Janusz Pawliszyn, Professor of Chemistry at the University of Waterloo, Waterloo,
Ontario, will receive the prestigious Dal Nogare Award for 2011, presented by The
Chromatography Forum of Delaware Valley (CFDV), for his outstanding work in the field
of chromatography. Awardees are chosen on the basis of his or her contributions to the
fundamental understanding of the chromatographic process. Established in honor of
Stephen Dal Nogare, who died in 1968 after serving six months as President of the
Forum, the CFDV Award recognizes Professor Pawliszyn’s development of SPME, Solid
Phase Micro-Extraction technology.
The Coblentz Society presents the Bomem-Michelson Award, which is dedicated to the
memory of Professor A. E. Michelson, developer of the Michelson Interferometer. ABB
sponsors the annual award to honor a scientist who has advanced the technique(s) of
vibrational, molecular, Raman or electronic spectroscopy.
Janusz’s research has focused on the design of highly automated and integrated
instrumentation for the isolation of analytes from complex matrices and the subsequent
separation, identification and determination of these species. The primary separation
tools used by his group are Gas Chromatography, Liquid Chromatography and Capillary
Electrophoresis coupled to variety of detections systems, including range of mass
spectrometry techniques. Currently his research is focusing on elimination of organic
solvents from the sample preparation step to facilitate on-site monitoring and in-vivo
analysis. The major area of his interest involves the development and application of
imaging detection techniques for microcolumn chromatography, capillary electrophoresis and micro chip separation devices.
Dr. Noda, in the late 1980s, in collaboration with his colleague Dr. Curt Marcott, demonstrated
that dispersive infrared spectroscopy could be used to detect changes in molecular
conformation and orientation when an external strain is applied to a polymeric system. This
made it possible to relate the macroscopic properties of materials to their microscopic or
molecular structure. Drs. Noda and Marcott went on to make seminal contributions to the
development of step-scan interferometry, a technique that has gained broad acceptance in
the field of molecular spectroscopy.
Isao has been the primary driver behind the use of generalized 2D analysis, an approach that
is now widely used in many fields. There are now thousands of publications in which 2D
correlation analysis has been coupled with vibrational spectroscopy, NMR, X-ray, mechanical
measurements, fluorescence spectroscopy and many others. This approach to data analysis
has dramatically increased the available information from various forms of spectroscopy.
By applying these methods to synthetic polymers and biomaterials.
Most notably, Janusz is the founder of SPME, Solid Phase Micro-Extraction, technology
and in addition to all of the vast body of work in separation science; this is the one that
has the greatest commercial success and recognition.
Professor Pawliszyn initiated an annual world conference, “ExTech”, focusing on new
advances in sample preparation and disseminates scientific developments in the area.
His recognitions include: the 1995 McBryde Medal, the 1996 Tswett Medal, the 1996
Hyphenated Techniques in Chromatography Award, the 1996 Caledon Award, the Jubilee
Medal 1998 from the Chromatographic Society of the U.K., the 2000 Maxxam Award
from Canadian Society for Chemistry, the 2000 Varian Lecture Award from Carleton
University, the Humboldt Research Award for 2001, 2002 COLACRO Medal, and in 2003

4:00 PM, Room 312
richard P. van Duyne, Charles E. and Emma H. Morrison Professor of Chemistry at
Northwestern University, will receive the 2011 Charles N. Reilley Award in
Electroanalytical Chemistry, sponsored and presented by the Society for Electroanalytical
Chemistry (SEAC). He has made pioneering advances in electroanalytical science,
especially related to surfaces and the use of Raman spectroscopy.
b. Jill venton, Assistant Professor of Chemistry at University of Virginia, will receive the
2011 Young Investigator Award, presented annually by the Society for Electroanalytical
Chemistry (SEAC). Professor Venton’s research focus has been on using microelectrodes
to make rapid measurements of neurotransmitters.
Dr. Venton’s lab has developed a novel new methodology to measure endogenous
changes in the neurotransmitters dopamine and serotonin in the fruit fly brain. By
employing optogenetics and microelectrodes, specific neurons can be activated and
real-time changes in neurotransmission observed. This work has demonstrated that
neurotransmitter signaling is largely conserved between Drosophila and mammals,
making Drosophila a good model system for studying neurotransmitters.
Professor Van Duyne first used resonance Raman spectroelectrochemistry to measure the
vibrational frequency changes that accompany heterogeneous and homogeneous
electron transfer reactions. Following the 1974 report by Martin Fleischman that the
Raman spectrum of adsorbed pyridine could be observed on a roughened silver
electrode, Richard pursued this unexplained observation leading to the 1977 discovery
of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). SERS is now widely recognized as
the most sensitive form of spectroscopy capable of identifying single molecules.
Jill’s lab has also pushed fast-scan cyclic voltammetry and microelectrodes beyond
traditional neurotransmitters, in particular for the monitoring of the neuromodulator adenosine. Using carbon-fiber microelectrodes, they have characterized
transient changes in adenosine for the first time in brain slices and in vivo. Jill’s lab is
also developing carbon nanotube based electrodes and exploring their electrochemical
properties. In addition, her group develops capillary electrophoresis instrumentation
with fluorescence or electrochemical detection for rapid separations of neurotransmitters.
His continued work has led to the development of SERS-based sensors for glucose,
lactate, anthrax, and chemical warfare agents. Richard is also widely credited with the
invention of nanosphere lithography (NSL) and its use in transforming the field
of nanoparticle optics. His discoveries using NSL have led to the development of
ultrasensitive nanoscale biosensors based on localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR)
spectroscopy, most notably, for Alzheimer’s disease.
Jill received her PhD in 2003 from University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill under the
direction of R. Mark Wightman. She was a postdoctoral scholar in the labs of Robert
Kennedy and Terry Robinson at University of Michigan from 2003-2005, where she was
an NIH postdoctoral fellow. Her undergraduate degree is from University of Delaware.
Since joining the faculty at the University of Virginia in 2005, her lab has published over
15 papers.
Richard received his BS degree from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 1967 and his
PhD from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1971 under the direction of
Charles N. Reilley. Richard started his independent career as Assistant Professor of
Chemistry at Northwestern University in 1971 and rose through the ranks to become
Charles E. and Emma H. Morrison Professor of Chemistry (1986).
He has been honored with many awards and recognitions, including: the ACS Analytical
Chemistry Award (2010), the Coblentz Society Bomem-Michelson Award (2010),
the Surfaces in Biomaterials Foundation Excellence in Surface Science Award (1996),
the Pittsburgh Spectroscopy Award (1991), the Phi Lambda Upsilon National
Fresenius Award (1981), and the Coblentz Society Memorial Prize in Molecular
Spectroscopy (1980).
Jill has been the recipient of numerous recognitions and awards, including the Reilley
award given by Pharmacia to an outstanding analytical graduate student, the ACS
Progress/Dreyfus Foundation Lectureship, Eli Lilly Young Analytical Investigator Award,
National Science Foundation CAREER Award, and the Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar
Award. She also received a teaching award from the Meade Endowment at University
of Virginia.
Richard is an elected member of the National Academy of Sciences (2010), the American
Academy of Arts and Sciences (2004) and is a fellow of the American Physical Society
(1985) and the American Association for the Advancement of Science (1983).
Jill’s lab has also received financial support from the National Institutes of Health, the
Jeffress Memorial Trust, the American Heart Association, and the University of Virginia
Fund for Excellence in Science and Technology.

James W. Jorgenson, the William Rand Kenan, Jr., Distinguished Professor of
Chemistry at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, will receive the 2011 Ralph
N. Adams Award in Bioanalytical Chemistry sponsored by the Pittsburgh Conference
and the Friends of Ralph N. Adams. The award was established to honor an outstanding
scientist who has advanced the field of bioanalytical chemistry through research,
innovation and/or education. James is being honored for his leadership in the
development of separation methods widely used in bioanalytical chemistry.
howard mark, President of Mark Electronics, will receive the 2011 Williams-Wright
Award from the Coblentz Society. The Award is presented annually at Pittcon to an
industrial spectroscopist who has made significant contributions to vibrational
spectroscopy while working in industry.
Howard was awarded the BS degree in chemistry from the City College of New York in
1963 and earned his MA degree in chemistry from the City University of New York in
1966. He was awarded the PhD degree in physical chemistry from New York University
in 1972. He remained at NYU as a research fellow, performing research in surface
chemistry and in applications of the then-new field of FTIR spectroscopy.
James Jorgenson began his exploration of innovative separation methods for the
separation of biomolecules while a graduate student in the laboratory of Professor Milos
Novotny. Upon arrival at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill in 1979, he
developed the field of capillary electrophoresis, a chemical separation technique that has
unprecedented resolving power for separating chemical mixtures. The success of
capillary electrophoresis opened up an entire field of microscale chemical separations,
and these tools were quickly adapted by scientists interested the chemical composition
of a broad range of biological tissues and cells.
Howard joined Technicon Instrument Corporation in 1976 and worked in the then-new
field of near-infrared analysis. While there he created, designed and developed new
algorithms for NIR quantitative and qualitative analysis and applied statistical and
chemometric methods to optimize test procedures. He was the first person to apply
the concept of Mahalanobis Distance to spectroscopic analysis.
In 1986 Howard began writing, with Jerry Workman, the popular and influential
“Statistics in Spectroscopy” column published in Spectroscopy Magazine. Howard and
Jerry continue to publish a “Chemometrics in Spectroscopy” column in the magazine.
Howard is a contributing editor and a member of the editorial advisory board of
Spectroscopy magazine, has authored or co-authored seven patents; over 190
publications, 85 oral presentations and 13 books and book chapters on NIR analysis and
on the application of statistics and chemometrics to spectroscopic analysis.
James was the first to demonstrate the possibility of analyzing the contents of single
biological cells because capillary electrophoresis only requires very small volumes.
Capillary gel electrophoresis is also the technique utilized for sizing DNA sequencing
fragments today and in fact was the breakthrough technology that allowed the human
genome to be sequenced several years ahead of schedule!
Later, he expanded the limits of capillary electrophoresis by showing that the voltages
utilized in these experiments could be increased by an order of magnitude (>300 kV)
to achieve a corresponding order of magnitude increase in plate count. More recently
he has demonstrated that microbore liquid chromatography experiments can be
accomplished utilizing ultra-high pressures to achieve chromatographic separations
with unprecedented separation efficiencies in relatively brief times.
Dr. Mark was awarded the 2003 Eastern Analytical Symposium Award for Outstanding
Achievement in Near Infrared Spectroscopy. Howard has given back to his profession via
significant involvement in the Council for Near-Infrared Spectroscopy, the New York
Section of the Society for Applied Spectroscopy, and the ASTM.
Howard is currently president of Mark Electronics, a consulting company providing
services in the fields of near-infrared analysis, chemometric and statistical data analysis,
and custom instrument design and development. He is also founder and president of
The Near Infrared Research Corporation.
Professor Jorgenson received his BS degree from Northern Illinois University in 1974
and his PhD from Indiana University in 1979. He has won numerous awards including
the American Chemical Society Award in Analytical Chemistry, the Pittsburgh Analytical
Chemistry Award, and the American Chemical Society Award in Chromatography. He
was elected a Member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2007. From
2000-2005 he served as Chemistry Department Chair at the University of North Carolina,
Chapel Hill. He has directed the research of more than 50 PhD students.

The Development and Application of Instrumentation in Electron and Ion Microscopy
When:
Monday, March 14, 2011
2:00 PM
Where:
Room 310,
Georgia World
Congress Center
Dr. David C. Bell
Dr. David C. Martin
The James L. Waters Annual Symposium is a
unique component of the Pittcon Technical
Program. In 1989, Mr. Waters, founder of
Waters Associates, Inc. and President of
Waters Business Systems, Inc., proposed that
the Society for Analytical Chemists of
Pittsburgh (SACP) offer an annual symposium
exploring the origin, development,
implementation, and commercialization of
scientific instrumentation of established and
major significance. The objective of the
symposium is to recognize workers and
the development and application of
instrumentation by preserving the early, and
in some cases more mature history, of the
important contributions, as well as, the
cooperation between inventors, scientists,
engineers, entrepreneurs and marketing
organizations. All expenses associated with
the symposium are generously funded by Mr.
Waters. Administration of the symposium,
including the selection of the topics and
speakers is the responsibility of the SACP.
Dr. David c. bell received his PhD in physics from the University of
Melbourne, Australia in 1997 and completed his postdoctoral
studies at MIT in 1999. In 2003, Dr. Bell joined the Center for
Nanoscale Systems (part of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences) at
Harvard University as a principal scientist and became the Manager
for Imaging and Analysis in 2007. Dr. Bell has been a lecturer in
applied physics at Harvard since 2003 and is a teaching professor at
the Harvard Extension School. Dr. Bell is one of the renowned
experts in the field of elemental analysis using electron microscopy
(TEM and STEM) and has co-authored a book on this subject. He
authored more than 70 research papers on the subjects of
microscopy, materials science and biology and holds several
patents. Dr. Bell has been one of the pioneers of Helium Ion
Microscopy and has published several papers on the fundamentals
and novel applications of this microscope to materials science and
biology. Dr. Bell is an elected Fellow of the Royal Microscopical
Society, U.K. His current research interests include nanocomposites
and nanowire materials; investigation of new mechanisms for
materials imaging, analysis and fabrication with charged particle
beams; electron-aberration determination, correction and the
measurements and the application with analytical microscopy
methods for advanced and adaptive correlative microscopy.
The Twenty-Second Waters Annual
Symposium recognizes the important
contributions of electron and ion microscopy
to a wide array of fields. Over seven decades,
electron microscopy continues to develop as it
addresses an expanding group of targets at
ever higher levels of resolution. More
recently, ion microscopy has assumed
increased importance in the same area.
Through these developments, electron and
ion microscopy are now utilized to image and
analyze structure in areas such as materials
analysis, biology, medicine, polymer
chemistry and forensics, as well as
many others.
Dr. David c. martin is the Karl W. and Renate Böer Professor and
Chair of the Materials Science and Engineering at the University of
Delaware and is the Founder and Chief Scientific Officer for
Biotectix LLC, of Quincy, MA. He is also an Adjunct Professor of
Materials Science and Engineering, Macromolecular Science and
Engineering, and Biomedical Engineering at the University of
Michigan. His research interests include the development of
conducting polymer coatings for integrating biomedical devices in
living tissue, high-resolution microscopy and impedance
spectroscopy studies of defects in ordered polymers and organic
semiconductors, and the deformation behavior of crystalline
polymer and organic molecular materials near surfaces. He is a
Fellow of the American Institute for Medical and Biological
Engineering, a Fellow of the American Physical Society, and was an
Alexander von Humboldt Fellow at the Max-Planck Institute for
Polymer Research in Mainz, Germany from 1997-1998. Professor
Martin worked on polyimide morphology with Kenn Gardner and
Larry Berger at DuPont Central Research & Development. In 1990,
Professor Martin received his PhD in Polymer Science and
Engineering from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst
under the direction of Professor Edwin L. Thomas (now at MIT).
An outstanding panel of speakers has been
assembled to recognize and review the
scientists, development, applications,
commercialization and current research in
electron and ion microscopy. The SACP is
extremely pleased to welcome the following
innovators to Pittcon 2011.

JAMES L. WATERS, ENTREPRENEUR, SPONSOR OF THE WATERS SYMPOSIUM AT PITTCON
James L. Waters has been a unique
contributor to the Pittcon Technical
Program since 1990 through his
funding of the James L. Waters Annual
Symposium to recognize pioneers in
the conception, development,
implementation, and commercialization
of scientific instrumentation of major
and established significance.
Mr. Waters has been an entrepreneur since his graduation
from Columbia University in 1946. At age 22, he established
J. L. Waters, Inc. manufacturing IR gas analyzers, sold that
company in 1955, and established Waters Associates in 1958.
He developed an airborne hydrometer, flame photometer
detectors, and refractometers for various applications.
He further developed the refractometer into a sensor for
the then little-known liquid chromatograph (LC), and
eventually a small-volume sensor for gel-permeation
chromatograph (GPC).
WatersAssociates’ first GPC, introduced at the 1964 Pittcon,
was a great commercial success. In 1968, Mr. Waters refocused
his efforts on chromatographic sensors and introduced their
first LC system in 1969. Waters Associates trademarked the
tagline, “The Liquid Chromatography People”, after they
helped purify positional isomers of a precursor to vitamin B12
for Nobel Laureate Robert Woodward of Harvard University. In
1992 Waters introduced software for chromatography, and in
1994 HPLC columns for drug assays and a benchtop LC-MS. All
31
of these actions fueled the growth of Waters Associates,
which, under Mr. Waters’ leadership from 1958 to 1980,
grew from 5 to 1100 employees with an annual sales volume
around $100 million, and to 4000 employees worldwide
with an annual sales volume in excess of $1 billion.
Mr. Waters has been a private venture capitalist since 1980. He
is currently President of Waters Business Systems and enjoys
working with young entrepreneurs. Mr. Waters endowed the
James L. Waters Chair in Analytical Chemistry at Northeastern
University. The name “Waters” has become synonymous with
“LC” in the scientific community.

Improving Productivity Through Automated Sample Preparation
Sample preparation methodologies are often the most time-, labor- and solvent-intensive portions of analytical workflows. Adding automation to sample
preparation processes can provide big improvements in overall productivity while simultaneously providing better analytical performance (precision and
recovery). This presentation will discuss how the use of automation for the extraction, clean-up and evaporation of solid and liquid samples can provide
these improvements.
11:00 a.m.
Fast Results: Semi-Quantitative Analysis without the Need for Standards
Measuring the amount of an unknown substance in chromatography is extremely difficult because of not knowing the structure or response factor, which
typically provide the reference to measure against. One way to remedy this is to purify, characterize, and then measure the response of the unknown
substance against a known compound but this solution is time consuming and often requires equipment (e.g. NMR) not readily available in the lab. In this
seminar, Dionex presents a different approach: using a Charged Aerosol Detector that provides consistent response, independent of molecular structure.
This solution provides semi-quantitative analysis of almost any mixture thus allowing analysis without the use of reference standards.

next-generation widely tunable Quantum Cascade Laser (QCL). This gives LaserScan greater sensitivity than alternative
spectrometers. The system rapidly cycles through a user-selected range of the mid-infrared spectrum anywhere between 6
to 12 µm. The system can analyze gases, liquids, and solids. It can also be paired with an IR microscope to achieve
significantly higher SNR than an FTIR microscope with a conventional globar source. Block also offers a widely tunable midIR source.
